Excellent service but uncomfy bed

We had a 1 bedroom ground floor ocean view villa and would rent one of these again. All of the staff from the front desk to the maintenance staff to our wait staff in the restaurant were excellent. We have told the front desk that the bed rolled into the middle and was very uncomfortable. It was very cold while we were there, below freezing at night. There was only a light summer spread on the bed and no spare blankets and we had not checked that until bedtime. Housekeeping responded immediately the next morning but even running the heat pump all night, our first night was not a comfortable one.

Loved my stay during the off season. It was quiet and relaxing. The property is well maintained. It's right next to Driftwood Beach which was nice when catching the sunrise on the beach. Your can also watch the sunrise from the deck chairs on the pavilion. I would stay at this location again.

Surprise RESORT fees

The BIG surprise was in check in. I was expecting to pay $46 resort fee and it ended up being $61. They have a few more fees than last time, which was $38. This was a total surprise. The stay was nice, however the toilet was not bolted to the floor on both sides. It moved constantly. The floors seemed dirty.

Everything was good except the bed. It was horrible. Never tried to sleep on a bed that bad. Normally I don’t leave comments but it deserved to be said no matter if it makes a difference.

Check in was quick, unit in a quiet area and it was a one bedroom oceanview unit with kitchen. Unit size was good but a little outdated. Bathroom fan was extremely noisy and it turns on with the light. Bed was a bit to firm and caused some aches. View and convenience to beach was great. No shells on this beach front but many clam holes. We enjoyed Driftwood beach and Hortons pond trail, both very close by. The restaurant for dinner was closed till November and the breakfast area was closed on Sundays and Mondays which happen to be the days of our stay. We went the 3rd week in September and weather was warm.

Great place to stay in jekyll!

This was our third time at the villas. There was a miscommunication between the hotels.com reservation to the property and we were initially assigned the wrong type of property. The manager immediately took care of the issue and was great! All staff were friendly and the condo worked perfectly. Compared to years past, this condo did not feel as clean as the others, but was still another wonderful stay!
